Thank you to every who took the time to visit myself and “the other Jen” during the farOpen Art Trail. We had such wonderful conversations with almost 100 visitors and this image just about sums up our week 😊 Big thanks to the organising team and to my partner in crime, the truly fabulous Jen

I've been really quiet on the socials lately, it's always the thing that gets lost when life is so busy - but I must try harder!

Despite the recent hot weather, we've been busy in the studio making some fabulous things together. These quilted bags were made on one of my new workshops and they have come out brilliantly - well done eveyone and thank you for joining me.

A beautiful stag outside the studio window today. His days are numbered if he's going to keep eating my roses! A beautiful beast
